💡 What is the current behavior?

Opening an overlay on field-style triggers (ix-date-input, ix-time-input, ix-datetime-input, ix-select, ix-category-filter) focuses the field, then focus often moves into the overlay. Native :hover / :focus on the field chrome is gone, so the field falls back to Default while the overlay stays open.

GitHub Issue Number: #1402 (EIX-151)

🆕 What is the new behavior?

  • While the overlay is open, the field host gets class active (same overlay-open naming as ix-dropdown-button). The look is field Hover via @include input.element-input-hover (--theme-input--border-color--hover, --theme-input--background--hover), not Focus outline and not button Active tokens. Focus outline is left to real focus; it is not forced or cleared for open overlays.
  • Shared Hover/Focus token helpers live in packages/core/scss/mixins/_input.scss (element-input-hover, element-input-focus).
  • Date / time / datetime: :host(.active) in input-field reapplies Hover on the native <input>. Host active tracks this.show. Calendar/clock ix-icon-button stays Subtle tertiary Default; aria-expanded uses a11yBoolean(this.show) (added on date/datetime; time already had it).
  • Select: host active tracks dropdownShow; Hover applied on .select (local SCSS — cannot use input-field).
  • Category-filter: showDropdown synced from ix-dropdown showChanged; host active tracks it; Hover applied on .input-container.

🏁 Checklist

A pull request can only be merged if all of these conditions are met (where applicable):

  • 🦮 Accessibility (a11y) features were implemented
  • 🗺️ Internationalization (i18n) - no hard coded strings — N/A (no new user-facing strings)
  • 📲 Responsiveness - components handle viewport changes and content overflow gracefully — N/A
  • 📕 Add or update a Storybook story — N/A (no new variant)
  • 📄 Documentation was reviewed/updated siemens/ix-docsN/A unless usage pages describe picker/select trigger field states
  • 🧪 Unit tests were added/updated and pass (pnpm test) — N/A (open look covered by visual regression, not class-name CTs)
  • 📸 Visual regression tests were added/updated and pass (Guide)
  • 🧐 Static code analysis passes (pnpm lint)
  • 🏗️ Successful compilation (pnpm build, changes pushed)

👨‍💻 Help & support

Manual check in react-test-app — open the overlay, move the pointer off the field, confirm Hover chrome stays:

  • /preview/date-input
  • /preview/time-input
  • /preview/datetime-input
  • /preview/select
  • /preview/category-filter

Optional extras: /preview/select-editable, /preview/select-multiple, /preview/category-filter-suggestions

Summary by CodeRabbit

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Date, time, datetime, select, and category-filter inputs now retain hover styling while overlays are open. Date, time, and datetime inputs expose expanded state. Visual regression tests cover the open-overlay states.

Changes

Overlay active state

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared input styling
packages/core/scss/mixins/_input.scss, packages/core/src/components/input/input.mixins.scss, packages/core/src/components/select/select.scss, packages/core/src/components/category-filter/category-filter.scss
Shared focus and hover mixins support active styling for enabled, editable inputs.
Picker state and accessibility
packages/core/src/components/date-input/date-input.tsx, packages/core/src/components/time-input/time-input.tsx, packages/core/src/components/datetime-input/datetime-input.tsx
Date, time, and datetime inputs add an active host class and expose picker state through aria-expanded.
Select and category-filter state
packages/core/src/components/select/select.tsx, packages/core/src/components/category-filter/category-filter.tsx
Select and category-filter components add an active host class while their dropdowns are visible. Category-filter state follows dropdown visibility events.
Open overlay visual validation
testing/visual-testing/tests/date-input/date-input.e2e.ts, testing/visual-testing/tests/time-input/time-input.e2e.ts, testing/visual-testing/tests/datetime-input/datetime-input.e2e.ts, testing/visual-testing/tests/select/select.e2e.ts, testing/visual-testing/tests/category-filter/category-filter.e2e.ts, .changeset/date-time-inputs-open-active.md
Visual tests cover open overlay states. The changeset documents the hover behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to e6b44

The PR keeps field-style controls in hover styling while overlays are open, but the current head can still show a conflicting focus outline and does not document the new aria-expanded behavior; select overflow handling and open-state accessibility coverage also need explicit follow-up. These bounded visual and accessibility issues should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merge.

picker toggle buttons expose picker visibility through aria-expanded, alongside
the existing Hover styling behavior, using consumer-focused wording.

- Around line 112-117: Add outline: none to the input rule nested under
:host(.active:not(.disabled):not(.readonly)) so the picker’s open state clears
the native focus outline while preserving the existing hover styling.
